Question 2

What to expect During this tour?

Accepted Answer

Harvest has always been seen as a time of celebration in the countryside: the hard work, the cultivating sacrifices, all those efforts are finally paid off with the growth of grape and the exciting time of wine making. Grapes would be pressed down to obtain the first juice useful in the process of making wine. The day would end with rich meals enjoyed at the table and the young ones being amused just breathing the widespread joy in the air. Mechanization was still awaiting to happen, harvest was carried out by whole families, pressing grape with their very feet inside huge wooden vats with great result, as a delicate pressing done with feet does not stress grapes. This tour is highly recommended for those who want to try a unique experience, while capturing the real essence of living as Tuscan families from the countryside. A visit to a winery with wine tasting is included; depending on the season guests can pick grapes or simply press grapes previously provided by us.
